Voted best of Jackson Hole for 5 years in a row. For over forty years Dave Hansen Whitewater has guided happy customers down the beautiful scenic and thrilling whitewater sections of the Snake River. Decades ago, Dave named the two biggest rapids, Lunchcounter and Big Kahuna, and we have been owned and operated by river guides ever since. The home of the 8-man raft and continuous scenic/whitewater combo trips, we offer the most friendly, personalized trips on the river. We’ll get you paddling, get you laughing, and get you wet!

Hi, have a go, the rowers know what they are doing, I at no time felt in any danger and we were there when the snow melted and the river was higher. At 52 and nervous as it was my first rafting trip, now I wished I had done it before. The boat held 10 comfortably, and we had two 80 year olds with us!
